What Is A BMW?

Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, or as it’s commonly known as, BMW; is a German multinational company that produces automobiles and motorcycles. The BMW company owns a variety of different automotive and motorcycle brands, including BMW, Mini, Rolls-Royce, and BMW Motored. In fact, in 2015 they were the 12 th largest producer of motor vehicles.

However, the company didn’t always produce automobiles, in 1916 when it was founded, it was an aircraft engine manufacturing company, which it did until 1918, then started manufacturing them again from 1933-1945. During the second world war the company concentrated mainly on aircraft engine production with motorcycles as a side line; automobile production was stopped during this period. However after the war, the company’s factories in West Germany were banned from producing motor vehicles and aircraft and as such it survived by switching production to pots, pans, and bicycles.

In 1948 the company was able to start producing motorcycles again and a few years later in ’52 they were able to produce cars, starting with the BMW 501 luxury saloon. In current times its headquarters is still located in Germany; however it produces vehicles in a diverse selection of different countries including Germany, but also Brazil, China, India, South Africa, the UK, the USA, and Mexico.

What Types Of Spare BMW Parts Are Available?


  • Engine Parts
    There are numerous different components which come under the category of engine parts. For example, there’s the combustion chamber in which fuel, air, pressure, and electricity create a small controlled explosion that moves the pistons up and down. The motion of the pistons creates power to move the vehicle.

    Another essential engine component is the engine block, which is the foundation of the engine. Large tubes called cylinders are cast into this integrated structure, which provides the engine’s pistons with the space to slide up and down.

    There are many different symptoms that there might be an issue with your vehicle’s engine, including but not limited to strange knocking noises originating under you vehicle’s bonnet, strong smells of engine or exhaust fumes (emissions should never be odorous and olfactible whilst inside the vehicle), or visible smoke leaving the exhaust. If it is black the engine is burning too much fuel, if it is dark blue your engine is burning oil, which means that oil is leaking into the engine combustion chamber.

  • Fuel Pumps
    If your fuel pump is damaged, it could cause an engine misfire which could lead to issues such as engine overheating and pre-igniting the fuel whilst driving. This is because it is responsible for pumping fuel into the engine.

    As such, the fuel pump is a very important part of the vehicle and it is essential that your vehicle’s fuel pump is well maintained and in good condition as a damaged fuel pump could have very severe consequences.

  • Heating Parts
    At first glance the importance of your vehicle’s heating parts may not be apparent. However, they are critical to keep your engine in good condition. Coolant is used to reduce the temperature, and when the coolant heats up, it expands. To account for this expanse, expansion tanks are included in the heating system. However, if there is damage to the tank, coolant could flow out of the engine and pour out onto the street.

  • Starter Motors
    This component is used to initiate the internal-combustion engine, so that it can continue to operate under its own power. When you turn the key in your vehicle’s ignition, you engage the starter motor which pulls air into your vehicle’s engine, allowing it to start.

  • EGR Valves
    EGR stands for exhaust gas recirculation and the function of this valve is to recirculate small amounts of exhaust back into the combustion chambers in order to decrease the overall temperature of the combustion process, thus reducing the formation of nitrogen oxide which produces smog. As such, this valve is a very important component for your vehicle, so it’s important to be vigilant for any symptoms of a failing EGR valve.

    One potential sign that there is a problem with your vehicle’s EGR valve is a rough idle. This means that the valves have become stuck in the open position due to the valve becoming fouled with carbon.
